Product Description

A nostalgic movement, exploiting the pastoral associations of the oboe and inspired by the sense of loss that informs A.E.Housman's Shropshire Lad. As a century and more separates us from the devastating conflict of World War One, the work implicitly evokes those themes of Housman's poems that led The Shropshire Lad to become so popular after 1914.
